Chapter 1834: Huo Ze and Xia Tang (38)
Xia Zhenyuan returned to the Southern Mountains while Qiu Zhi and the three children waited for him in the courtyard.
Seeing that Xia Zhenyuan did not look too good, Qiu Zhi asked worriedly, “What did they call you over for?”
Xia Zhenyuan did not want Qiu Zhi and the three children to know about that troubling matter. He shook his head. “It’s all settled. It’s nothing. Don’t worry.”
Qiu Zhi nodded. “Let’s go in first!”
At night, Qiu Zhi and Xia Zhenyuan lay on the bed. Qiu Zhi could not help but ask, “I know it was difficult for you to say it in front of the children. Why did the people at the old residence call you over?”
Xia Zhenyuan recalled Xia Wangshi’s unreasonable request and was still somewhat angry. Qiu Zhi had asked again and he had no intention of hiding it from her.
It was only after they separated that Xia Zhenyuan realized how cowardly and filial he used to be.
Now that he had his own opinion, he would no longer obey Xia Wangshi’s orders!
Xia Zhenyuan told Qiu Zhi about Xia Wangshi’s request.
Qiu Zhi was also furious.
The Xia family had been selfish for more than a day or two. They had already separated from each other, yet they still had such shameless and unreasonable thoughts!
Let her daughter get her degree?
She wanted them to use the money to send her daughter to a private school instead of building a new house?
“You didn’t agree, did you?” Qiu Zhi looked at Xia Zhenyuan with reddened eyes, afraid that he would go along with Xia Wangshi’s wishes.
“Ah Zhi, I’m no longer the Xia Zhenyuan I used to be. During festive seasons, I’ll always pay my respects to the elderly couple. I’ll just do my part for my parents. I won’t agree to anything else!”
Xia Zhenyuan put his arm around Qiu Zhi’s shoulders. “Besides, it’s all thanks to Cha Cha that our family has been able to survive. Our Cha Cha is in charge of this family now. At most, I’m just a worker.”
Qiu Zhi was amused by Xia Zhenyuan’s words.
However, what he said was the truth. It was Cha Cha who had the final say at home.
Without Cha Cha, they would probably still be suffering in the old residence.
…
In the past, the people in the old mansion had never been united.
But now, seeing that the second branch’s family was getting better and better, the people in the old residence were getting jealous.
They could not understand how the people from the second branch had undergone such drastic changes in just one year.
Just as they were lost in their thoughts, Xia Furong, who came back from summer vacation, brought them a piece of news.
“Grandma, you probably don’t know yet. Second Uncle’s family is rich because Xia Cha went to a nightclub in Yan City to sing!” Xia Furong showed the Xia family a video.
One of Xia Furong’s friends was a rich second-generation heir. Once, he had brought them to the JP stage.
That rich second-generation alumni was a fan of Little Haitang.
Originally, Xia Furong didn’t know that Little Haitang was Xia Cha. Coincidentally, her stomach wasn’t feeling well that day, so she had gone to the wrong bathroom. When Xia Cha went backstage to remove her makeup, Xia Furong had seen her appearance.
At that time, she was extremely shocked. Firstly, she had not expected Xia Cha to be the main pillar of JP’s big stage. That second-generation rich alumni was a fan of Little Haitang, who was just an ugly and useless girl in her heart.
Other than that, she had not expected Xia Cha to have such a good voice. Her voice was like the sound of nature. Although she did not show her face, she could make the guests go crazy with her amazing voice!
“Grandma, you don’t know how messy a place like the JP stage is. Most of the girls who go in to sing will be…” Xia Furong pretended to be embarrassed to say it out loud. “Second Uncle and his family actually let Xia Cha go to that kind of place to earn money for money. Sigh…”
How could the people in the Xia family’s old residence not understand the meaning behind Xia Furong’s words?
Wenfeng County was originally a conservative and backward place, so their thoughts naturally stopped in the past. Now that Xia Furong said this, the people in the old residence all thought of bad things.
“Oh my goodness. I didn’t think that Xia Cha would do such a thing!” Fang Liu said with disdain.
“You really can’t judge a book by its cover. Does that girl not want to get married in the future? By doing such a shameless thing, she’s embarrassing the whole Xia family!” Ye Guixiang said.
“The way I see it, Second Brother’s family knows about it. They actually relied on selling their daughters to get rich. Bah, how disgusting!” Xia Zhenxiang said.
“Tomorrow, we’ll go to the Southern Mountains to look for Second Brother and his family!” Xia Wangshi said with an ugly expression.
“Grandma, what’s the use of looking for Second Uncle? In my opinion, someone like Xia Cha who has a bad character and doesn’t learn good at such a young age won’t be able to enter the best high school in Yan City.” A trace of ruthlessness flashed past Xia Furong’s eyes. “Grandma, take the video and report Xia Cha directly to the authorities in Yan City. Isn’t that better?”
“Maybe she can give her place in school to Auntie!”
Xia Wangshi looked at Xia Furong and felt that what she said made sense.
If she went to cause trouble with her second son’s family, at most there would be rumors and slanders. Xia Cha could still attend the best high school.
If it was brought to school, the effect might be different.
No matter how good her grades were, which school would dare to accept her if she was dirty?
…
The second branch did not know what the people in the old residence were thinking of.
Every day, there would be quite a number of tourists who came to visit. They had no time to rest at all.
Xia Zhenyuan and Qiu Zhi gradually relaxed when they saw that the family was no longer looking for him.
Soon, it was time for all the schools to mail their admission notices.
Xia Xing received the acceptance letter from Yan City’s No. 1 High School, but Xia Cha had not received it.
Xia Cha was puzzled but did not think too much about it.
After waiting for two more days, Xia Cha had still not received it.
Xia Cha contacted her teachers, who only told her that her results were fine. However, when they accepted students, they had to look at their results and other aspects.
Xia Cha asked what he was referring to, but the teacher did not answer her.
After the call, Xia Cha was stunned.
Xia Xing and Xia Lan walked into the room and looked at the stunned Xia Cha. The two sisters asked with concern, “Cha Cha, did you call to ask? Why hasn’t your notice been sent over yet?”
Xia Cha lowered her eyes and her long and thick eyelashes trembled. “Yes, they said that my results were fine, but there were other problems. They didn’t mention anything else.”
Xia Cha felt that something was wrong. What other problems could she have?
If the best high school in Yan City did not accept her, other high schools would probably not dare to accept her.
“How did this happen?” Xia Lan frowned.
“Sister, Second Sister, don’t worry. I’ll go to Yan City’s No. 1 High School tomorrow to ask about it.”
She had just finished middle school. She had to attend high school and university. No one was going to stop her.
“Don’t tell Mom and Dad about this first, lest they worry.”
That night.
Xia Cha lay on the bed. For the first time since she moved to the Southern Mountains, she couldn’t sleep. She tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
She had not received a notice. The teacher had even said that she had problems in other areas. Obviously, someone did not want her to go to high school!
